CHARITY WALKATHON IN AID OF ARKA FOUNDATION

On the 17th January, a walkathon will be organised by Dr White and the Preluna Hotel & Spa in aid of the Arka Foundation.

The Arka Foundation in Gozo is a voluntary, non-profit and non-governmental organisation that promotes the welfare of people with special needs and their families, irrespective of their creed or nationality.

It aims to create and foster a positive attitude towards the disabled, in order to enrich their quality of life. They promote community integration and access by loaning special aids and equipment, and they also form links in the local community by organising excursions and other activities. Moreover, they facilitate support groups for the disabled.

Registration for the walkathon will commence at 10am, and the walk will start at 10.30am from the Preluna Hotel & Spa, going towards the LOVE sign at Spinola Bay and then back to the Preluna. Donations are €10, and refreshments will also be kindly provided by the hotel after the walk.
